Studs up will getcha every time.

Unless you're Spain.

VAR is going to overturn this penalty call which will suck.. But I don't think it's a PK

just heard the US ladies are in a dogfight with Spain 1-1. Might get upset early in the quarterfinals.

Interesting decision to take Morgan off that PK but Repinoe steps in and gets it done

Call stands.

Yeah... I guess there wasn't evidence to overturn it and I am thinking IF they hadn't called it a penalty it would have stood as well

looked like some usually soccer embellishment to me too.... barely touched her, such :bullshit:

Yah... Again, I think it would have been upheld had they not called it a PK but I thought it was a weak call. Rule analyst said it was a good call and she usually isn't biased and does an excellent job saying what is or isn't a penalty

Should have been a red.... She wasn't trying for the ball after what should have been a US penalty imo

It wasn't how hard or how much she touched her, she went in studs up, it gets called almost always in every League and International match, men's or women's. Actually the Spanish player is lucky, usually studs up gets an automatic yellow card.

Oh... I thought when you said "studs" you were talking about the player before that O'Hara got drilled studs up and no call...

Just a few posts ago you said always. Now it's almost always?

Sounds to me like a :bullshit: call to ensure the USA moves on.

Who wins in the Sweden v Canada match?

There were a few studs up calls in the US game that weren't called either
